Luke 7:4-21

⁴So they came to Iesus, and besought him instantly, saying that hee was worthy that hee should doe this for him:

⁵For he loueth, said they, our nation, and he hath built vs a Synagogue.

⁶Then Iesus went with them: but when he was now not farre from the house, the Centurion sent friendes to him, saying vnto him, Lord, trouble not thy selfe: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter vnder my roofe:

⁷Wherefore I thought not my selfe worthy to come vnto thee: but say the word, and my seruant shalbe whole:

⁸For I likewise am a man set vnder authoritie, and haue vnder mee souldiers, and I say vnto one, Goe, and he goeth: and to another, Come, and hee commeth: and to my seruant, Doe this, and he doeth it.

⁹When Iesus heard these things, he marueiled at him, and turned him, and said to the people, that followed him, I say vnto you, I haue not found so great faith, no not in Israel.

¹⁰And when they that were sent, turned backe to the house, they founde the seruant that was sicke, whole.

¹¹And it came to passe the day after, that he went into a citie called Nain, and many of his disciples went with him, and a great multitude.

¹²Nowe when hee came neere to the gate of the citie, behold, there was a dead man caried out, who was the onely begotten sonne of his mother, which was a widowe, and much people of the citie was with her.

¹³And when the Lord sawe her, he had compassion on her, and said vnto her, Weepe not.

¹⁴And he went and touched the coffin (and they that bare him, stoode still) and he said, Yong man, I say vnto thee, Arise.

¹⁵And he that was dead, sate vp, and began to speake, and he deliuered him to his mother.

¹⁶Then there came a feare on them all, and they glorified God, saying, A great Prophet is risen among vs, and God hath visited his people.

¹⁷And this rumour of him went foorth throughout all Iudea, and throughout all the region round about.

¹⁸And the disciples of Iohn shewed him of all these things.

¹⁹So Iohn called vnto him two certaine men of his disciples, and sent them to Iesus, saying, Art thou hee that should come, or shall we waite for another?

²⁰And when the men were come vnto him, they said, Iohn Baptist hath sent vs vnto thee, saying, Art thou hee that should come, or shall we waite for another?

²¹And at that time, he cured many of their sickenesses, and plagues, and of euill spirites, and vnto many blinde men he gaue sight freely.
